About the J Frame Hammer Block
The hammer block is one of the most critical safety components in a Smith & Wesson revolver. It physically blocks the hammer from striking the firing pin unless the trigger is pulled fully to the rear. This prevents accidental discharge if the revolver is dropped or the hammer is struck. A worn or damaged hammer block can compromise the safety of the revolver and must be replaced immediately.
When to Replace the Hammer Block:
- Visible wear or damage to hammer block
- Hammer block does not move freely
- Safety concerns about accidental discharge
- As part of complete action rebuild
- Preventive maintenance during restoration
- Gunsmith recommendation after inspection
Why Choose Genuine OEM Parts?
Factory replacement hammer blocks are manufactured to the exact same specifications, tolerances, and materials as the original components installed at the Smith & Wesson factory. This ensures proper fit, reliable operation, and critical safety function. Aftermarket hammer blocks may not meet these exacting standards and can compromise the safety of your revolver. Never compromise on safety components.
Installation & Gunsmithing Notes:
Professional gunsmith installation is REQUIRED for this component. The hammer block is a critical safety part that must be properly installed and tested. Installation requires removal of the side plate, disassembly of the trigger mechanism, and precise fitting. Function testing must be performed after installation to ensure proper safety operation. Always follow proper safety procedures and consult a qualified gunsmith.
